I should start by pointing out that this project is not intended for beginner crocheters. While it is an easy project to complete, you need to be comfortable with some basic Tunisian stitches before beginning this project. This is because you will be skipping stitches and working them out of order and you will need to be able to identify a your working stitches in order to complete the braid.

With that said, you experienced Tunisian crocheters will find this to be a quick, surprisingly easy, and fun project to complete!

Crochet addict, bibliophile, and cooking enthusiast. If I'm not sleeping, I'm probably making something while reading (because why do one thing at a time, when you can do two?)

Drawing, painting, and coloring are some of my favorite things to do, so I own a ridiculous amount of art supplies & coloring books. I also enjoy making soap, and even owned a soap shop in Albuquerque for a few years.

Other than that, I've owned a few businesses and have moved cross-country a few times. I play the flute and piccolo, and love to study languages in my free time. I'm fluent in English, Spanish and French, and I speak a little German, Italian, Mandarin, Japanese, Russian, and Korean. I'm a writer, though you wouldn't know it by the quality of my bio, but I write fiction and fantasy stories. My first novel will be completed soon, and I have a second one in the works.

Someday, I will travel the world with the person I love. We will see and experience all the magic the world has to offer together, and it will be amazing.
